Hi all and thanks for the forum.
I’ve been lurking for a bit to get an insight into the world of LED flashlights. I’ve still a lot to learn but have 4 currently in my stable.
BLF A6 (A1)
Olight S30R
Astrolux S41 (Nichia 219B)
Princeton Tec Apex Extreme
My current work has me under houses for most of the day, so when I was issued a hardware store head torch I ghetto rigged my BLF A6 in 18350 mode to the side and now have the boss wanting one :+1:
Today my S41 arrived and I’m going to swap out the A6 for it. The Boss may get the A6
I also live in the country and enjoy the outdoors so lighting is with me there too. I’ve been using a Princeton Tec Apex Extreme mostly (a good 5 years) as I’m in some cold environments and having the ability to keep the batteries close to body warmth is a bonus as you would know.
Welcome to BLF
Yeah I love those bands to use flashlights as headlamp and be able to choose a flashlight I feel is best for the task.
Have a pleasant time at this friendly forum, Mt.B!
Welcome to BLF
Nice toys you have there …Welcome to blf …don’t drink the kool-aid
Welcome to BLF, Mt.B!
Don’t give away your BLF-A6 shorty too soon, wearing it on your head it is more lightweight and slim than the S41, while only giving slightly less light.
Hi and welcome Mt.B.
Welcome to the forum. Glad you discovered the A6.
I hear ya, I don’t want to as it is a really good light and is how I found this place. A big thanks to all those involved in getting it together :+1:
Thanks for the warm welcome too :sunglasses:
